Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On January 25, 2012, Extreme Networks, Inc. ( the “Company”) and Extreme Depot LLC (“Optionee”) entered into an Option Agreement in which the Company granted Optionee an option (the “New Option”) to purchase a portion of Extreme Networks' corporate campus located at 3515-3585 Monroe Street, Santa Clara California (the “Second Property”). As previously announced, the Optionee holds an option (the “Existing Option”) to purchase the other portion of the corporate campus (the “First Property”). Together, the Existing Option and the New Option entitle the Optionee to purchase the entire headquarters campus from the Company.
Extreme Depot LLC is a third party not affiliated in any way with Extreme Networks.
Under the New Option, the Optionee will have until December 28, 2012 to exercise the New Option. If Optionee exercises the New Option, the closing on the purchase of the Subject Property will occur thirty days after such exercise. However, the Optionee has the right to extend the closing by up to six months to meet city regulatory requirements. The Optionee must make certain payments to the Company in order to keep the New Option in effect, and in order to extend the closing date.
The purchase price of the Second Property is approximately $24,500,000. The total purchase price for both the First and the Second Properties totals $48,500,000.
The Optionee has the right to purchase either the First or Second Property separately, depending upon whether certain closing conditions are satisfied.
